Differential Expression of Apoptosis Related Genes in Selected Strains of Aedes aegypti with Different Susceptibilities to Dengue Virus
Figure 2
Within Strain Comparisons: Relative expression of Argonaute-2, AeIAP1, caspase-16, Aedronc and Aedredd in the midguts of Aedes aegypti in strains that are Refractory (Cali-MIB: Left Panel) or Susceptible (Cali-S: Right Panel) to Dengue virus in the presence (black bars) or absence (white bars) of Dengue virus-2 in the bloodmeal.
The expression levels in the bloodfed samples were arbitrarily set at 1 and the expression levels in the presence of the virus represent fold-differences from the susceptible controls. The bars were geometrically adjusted (2−ΔCT)+SD.-2−ΔCT.
